KA9 bodykits

Since the body kit guide doesn't work anymore, here are a few kits I've found for the 99-04 Acura 3.5 RL/Legend (KA9).

That's the new fog light where they use an LED for bulbs, right?

I am not a fan of the sides or rear on the Skipper but the front looks great!  I love the G Answer sides and read though!

does anyone like the skipper roof spoiler? do you think that would comliment my kit?

Yes and Yes

my thoughts exactly.

Are you sure that bumper is an AIMGAIN front bumper?

Looks a lot like a VLENE custom fit or something. I love that front, but i've not found any company that makes it. More info on it would be appreciated.

EDIT:

and is it me, or does it look like there's a lot of VIPcars surrounding the RL/Legends in those "extra" pics? I've noticed lately the Legend/RL is popping up more in VIPCar shows...

That is the new aimgain kit. not the old one, very similar to the mode parfume kit.

And yes the KA9 has gained respect and has been sighted but no one in the US has really pushed the limits, this is what i am attempting. i was inspired on a visit to japan, when 3 out of 10 cars were KA9's and they were really clean, but its funny how in japan they like to "dub" out their cars or make them USDM. lol

Yea the Japanese guys that come over to the Legend forum said the Legends are typically done in the LA/Lux-Style because of the shun the KA7-9 used to get from the VIP guys (VIP-style didn't like LA-Style and vice versa). But it looks like times are changing, and the RL/Legend is getting love across the board, which is good :). nice to know its able to bridge gaps. 


Wonder when they'll accept it into one of the premier VIPCar clubs. That'd solidify its place as a VIPCar no? I figure the Japanese have last say on what's a VIPCar and what's not, since it's their style LOL!

EDIT: sorry for the hijack. Back on topic.

Not sure if "JOB Original" means One Off in this case or that's the maker (I translated this - メーカーはショップオリジナルになります- to mean "the maker is Job Original") But i stumbled across this...

I think japanese is kinda backwards in translation. he meant OEM lol

[QUOTE=maxpowerintegra;138322]I think japanese is kinda backwards in translation. he meant OEM lol[/QUOTE]

Well I know somewhat how to communicate in Japanese, his speak there is off...

It reads "Me-ka wa Job Original ni (na)rimasu" Which literally translates to "Maker Job Original, it exists."

Thereby I translated it to mean "The Maker is Job Original"

I searched up Job Original this morning and stumbled across Ducks Garden, so i figure it's custom...so Oneoff...BLAH!!!!!!:sad:

It's a lip kit...It's FRP, and $300 bucks for the front.:pat: 


as an aside, check out the dish on those rears :biggthumpup:

the 1999+ ka9 doesn't really need a body kit.

the front bumper and rear bumper look pretty nice already.

you'll get the most out of your efforts by simply getting very nice fitting wheels (and by this I don't mean extreme poke) and a really, really perfect drop (and by this I don't mean slammed)

I agree Q.  I may add a front lip but that will be it if I even do that.  I do plan to upgrade to 19's though.  I think that poked wheels on the RL look bad as well.  A 19x9.5 +32 or so is all you need I think.

wow... the MP is money shot material right thurr.

i personally like the g-answer's clean and subtle look.  that custom OEM one looks sick as well. I wonder what car he got that out of.

I want! who can import one of these?

^ you should refrain from necro'ing old threads, but any of our vendors can get them.  i recommend JDM Palace since youre in the bay area..Auto Fasion is another solid choice, but all vendors should be able to get these and are trustworthy,

on the bonus pictures.that last rl with the Chrome grill looks sick where would i get one of those and those fenders look sick
